Gain Your Life!



This millennial is a great one to be living in because we are seeing the Scriptures literary come to life; this is the millennial that will usher in the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. When asked by His Disciples about His coming, He gave markers that will happen; the truth is most of the markers have happened and are happening in our time (Luke 21:1-33). For the naysayers, He warned that “Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away” (Luke 21:33). This is the affirmation that the world will indeed come to an end as He has said and His coming is sure and imminent as He has promised. For this reason, the enemy had stepped up its workings in distracting the people so as to get weighed down with the business of life. When people are weighed down with the business of life like in the days of Noah, they are not mindful of the things of God; eventually they lose sight of them.
One of the strategies the enemy has deployed to cause the sons of God to be distracted is by spreading erroneous messages through false Brethren that have wormed themselves into the midst of the true Brethren. The messages have a semblance of truth but the reality is that it ties and enslaves the people with bogus rules and regulations (Galatians 2:4-5). These messages carry dos and don’ts that are actually human philosophies and traditions that are incapable of dealing with man’s fleshly indulgence (Colossians 2:20-23). God is looking for people like Paul that will be spiritually alert to these falsehoods and will protect the purity of the gospel from these terrible contamination: “But we did not yield in submission to these people for even an hour, so that the truth of the gospel would remain for you” (Galatians 2:5). As a result of this great charge, we must endure hardship in the face of such blatant wind carrying errors and deceit. We have to stand our ground so that we will not be blown away by these strange teachings and doctrines that seek to stop us from achieving the purpose for which we were placed on earth. Christ told us clearly that: “By your endurance gain your lives” (Luke 21:19). Without enduring but allowing these terrible winds to sweep us from our solid footing in Christ, we will lose our lives in the end when He appears. Therefore, the grace to endure and remain standing so that we will be able to stand in His Presence unashamed is released to us in Jesus Christ name. God bless you!

The Quarry Site Experience

Have you ever visited a quarry site and considered the process the rocks are subjected to before they become dressed stones to be used? If the stones could talk they will have a story to tell about their experiences.  As children of God we go through diverse experiences and we wonder if we will indeed survive them. Sometimes we wonder why our gracious and compassionate Father would allow such to befall us considering who we are in Him and what we are doing in His vineyard.  The Scripture that should readily come to our minds in such circumstances is God’s assurance when He said: “I will be with you when you pass through the waters, and when you pass through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. You will not be scorched when you walk through the fire and the flame will not burn you ” (Isaiah 43:2). This Scripture assures us that through the experiences of flames and waters, God is always by our side to see us through.  Thus, it is necessary for us to go through the...

Are You A True Disciple? Part 1

       This decade opened with very dire straits for mankind, as many people around the world woke up to a world that stood still as each nation shut their borders, homes and institutions shutting their doors. If many had been told this scenario could happen a couple of decades ago, one would say it was crazily impossible. But it did happen! Many lives and livelihoods were destroyed, and many institutions and lifestyles, including the Church, were affected. As terrible as the times were and still are, it is exposing the hearts and state of many 'sons of God'!         Many wondered aloud, 'What does the devil want for causing all this havoc?' And some went further to ask, 'What does God want?' The answer to both questions is 'Man' (male and female)! It is a battle between the Kingdom of God and darkness for the soul of man. As a result, man is being prepared both by God and the devil for eternity with either!         ...

It Is Time To Raise A Cry For Nigeria!

  "The voice said, “Cry out!” And he said, “What shall I cry?” “All flesh is grass, And all its loveliness is like the flower of the field. The grass withers, the flower fades, Because the breath of the Lord blows upon it; Surely the people are grass. The grass withers, the flower fades, But the word of our God stands forever” (Isaiah 40:6-8).         Listening to a brother detailing how Nigeria will be great again because it was foretold decades ago, I quieted down in my spirit to listen to him. According to him, the prophecies of old say that Nigeria will become a beacon of God's light to the rest of the world as they carry His Word to the rest of the world, especially in Africa. He enumerated the many qualities of Nigeria, especially the spiritual significance of her position within the continent of Africa. She will be used by God to trigger the last move of revival in the last days, he continued.         I listened attentively,...
